Outsourced hotel revenue management means I do the job of the revenue manager for you: I watch the comp set and pace every day, move rates and restrictions, manage the OTAs, forecast demand and report each month. You keep control of the hotel and see every decision.
What I plan around in Paris: Fashion Weeks in March, June, September and October; Roland-Garros in late May; Trade shows at Porte de Versailles; Christmas and New Year. Guests I price for: Couples and small families from the US, UK and Asia staying 3 to 6 nights in central arrondissements. Where I start: Arrondissement-level benchmarks, trade-show and fashion-week premiums, and strategies that fit the 120-night primary-residence limit and registration rules.
Paris is where five-star hotel revenue management is at its most demanding, and that is the world I came from. For Paris hotels I work on segmentation across leisure, corporate and fashion trade, fences for the major fair weeks, and comp sets built by quarter rather than by star category alone.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Paris.
